Decision:

The Local Committee (Elmbridge) agreed:

(i) The
county council’s intention to introduce the proposals as
detailed in Annex 1 is formally advertised, and subject to
statutory consultation, including the following
amendments:
Drawings 1 and 2 – add two additional bays at the north-east
of Bridge Road with a 30 minute limit and extend the bays on Creek
Road outside numbers 13/15Manordene Close, Thames Ditton to
advertise double yellow lines on one side of the close.

Consider
changing the hours of operation of the proposed zig zag
restrictions in Thames Street to ensure that they correspond with
school start and finish times. If
necessary, amend the existing zig zags to match.

(ii) The county council’s intention to
carry out informal consultations and, subject to satisfactory
responses, refine the proposals as detailed in Annex 2 before being
formally advertised and subject to statutory
consultation;

(iii) If objections are received the Parking Strategy
and Implementation Team Manager is authorised to try and resolve
them;

(iv) If any objections cannot be resolved, the Parking
Strategy and Implementation Team Manager, in consultation with the
Chairman/Vice Chairman of this committee and the county councillor
for the division, decides whether or not they should be acceded to
and therefore whether the order should be made, with or without
modifications:

(v) To note the locations where we have received
requests for new or amended parking controls, and following
analysis, have recommended no changes at the current time, as
detailed in Annex 3;

(vi) That officers in consultation with members be
asked to look at the impact of extending residents parking to
Dorchester Road, Gascoigne Road Weybridge and take this forward if
appropriate and also to consider a change in the hours for existing
resident parking in the area eg Limes
Road and Minorca Road to correspond with local car parks.

Reasons: Changes
to the highway network, the built environment and society mean that
parking behaviour changes and consequently it is necessary for a
Highway Authority to carry out regular reviews of waiting and
parking restrictions on the highway network.

It is recommended that
the waiting restrictions in this report are progressed as they will
help to:
